I have inherited an application that uses mono that runs a windows service. All of the original developers are gone. The production version uses mono on linux. I am trying to get a development environment up and running. I decided to use windows as the base platform running mono up top of it. Ok maybe not the best idea given my current issue but I would like to try to understand the issue before moving the environment to linux.
The issue is I can’t get mono-service to run. I can get small winforms apps to run using mono. My issue is the same as a previous question with an answer. using mono-service to wrap a windows service on linux However I can’t translate the answer on what to do in a windows environment. I am sure I am having an issue with not loading a dll.
Unhandled Exception: System.TypeInitializationException: An exception was thrown by the type initializer for Mono.Unix.Native.Syscall ---> System.EntryPointNotF oundException: Mono_Posix_Syscall_L_ctermid at (wrapper managed-to-native) Mono.Unix.Native.Syscall:_L_ctermid () at Mono.Unix.Native.Syscall..cctor () [0x00000] --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at MonoServiceRunner.Main (System.String[] args) [0x00000]
I have added the monodevelop environment variables and set to “all” and have a log file. No text is going to log file. And I can’t get anymore info that what is posted above. Can someone point me in the right direction.
